Highlighted reviews from other travelers
There’s so much to see in the Vatican which makes it quite overwhelming. The guide was excellent at steering us through the large crowds to look at the best sights. She (Maria) was very experienced and knowledgeable.
The guide was supremely knowledgeable and courteous, plus he introduced some humor into the history which is always great. We had a wonderful time!
